To record a resolution-independent script |
1 | Before you start recording, open a new document at the resolution in which you want to work. |
2 | Choose Window Scripts. |
3 | Before painting or drawing, choose Select All, or press Command + A (Mac OS) or Ctrl + A (Windows). |
This action creates a reference rectangle that is part of the recording. The rectangle must be recorded to play a session back into a higher resolution file later. |
4 | In the Scripts panel, click the Record button . |
5 | Deselect the reference rectangle by doing one of the following: |
• | Choose Select None. |
• | Draw inside the selected area. |
• | Press Command + D (Mac OS) or Ctrl + D (Windows). |
6 | Proceed with recording the script. |
To play a script at a different resolution |
1 | Create a new document with the resolution at which you want to play the script. |
If the destination document has a different aspect ratio from the original, the image created by the script will be proportionally distorted. |
2 | In the Scripts panel, click the resolution-independent script you recorded in the Scripts library viewer. |
3 | Before playing the script, choose Select All, or press Command + A (Mac OS) or Ctrl + A (Windows) in the new document. |
The rectangle recorded at the outset of the original script is referenced to the selected rectangle in this document. |
4 | Click Play. |
The original script replays into the new document. All brushes, paper textures, and related functions are appropriately scaled for the new resolution. |
